I used to live off of sugar and now I don’t crave it as much. I still treat myself to things but I try not to eat sweets everyday. I have alot of organic shops close to me so I try to grocery shop there. Im learning to treat myself better and I deserve a pat on the back. I never really felt like I deserved anything but I am starting to realize I do. I know this is off the topic of being healthy but this I haven’t been this happy in a while. I do think food contributes to that though. It has changed my energy level and immune system. I just have to keep telling myself to keep it up

It has been very very hard to save money with the way the economy has been. The natural disasters are out of control, which eventually leads to higher food prices. Many many people are struggling and I feel remorse for those in the nation who were already needy to begin with.
These days I do my hardest to not drive very far or do the thing I love the most… SHOP. I refuse to be with the majority that are in debt. Right now I don’t get to be doing all the things I want to but I have to keep telling myself I eventually will. Hopefully five, ten years from now I will have more things checked of my 43 things. I will have a smile on my face because I have a happpy healthy life, goals and dreams checked off that I have accomplished, and I good credit score.
If you can’t laugh at yourself, you have no right laughing at anyone else. I have had some great laughs lately. This is the first time in a long time I have been this happy :)
